After 32 years I retired from Jones New York Company as pattern maker. Working at the garden and seeing beautiful flowers is the best way to lessen my frustrations. Since 2008 I joined Sogetsu School Ikebana class under Ms.Meei-Huey Lin,well known Ikebana Instructor in this area. I would like to share with you some of my Ikebana arrangements done at the classes. Welcome for your kind criticism.

The Sixth Annual Fall Harvest Exhibition by members of Grace Taiwanese Presbyterian Church at Lawrenceville, NJ. was held on August 31, 2013 Saturday from 10am to 4pm. This year we again have the opportunity to display the art of Ikebana and Tea ceremony in the Grace Church. Another activities were to sell fresh organic home grown vegetables,Taiwanese style sausages , home made sweets, deserts to raise money for Church at parking lot.
I want to thank my friends Betty, Lynn, Doris and Mary, who participated this event, arranged beautiful arrangement enhanced Grace Church activities and make this exhibition so successful. Jenny Chen, she so kind let me cut Cockscombs from her garden as much as I wanted. All the vegetable growers who donated to Grace Church, and all the dedicated volunteer workers to Church . Thank you my friends, from bottom of my heart. (8-31-13)
